Hi,

I'm conducting an offline TEC conversation business with Jo and I'm
impressed.
You will soon be able to confidently buy TEC tickets and use the OSM
transport map ;-)

I have just two tag remarks.

For the third time (Julien), if we want to use URLs, we'd better use URLs.
network=tec-wl.be is not an URL as you can see by not being able to
click on it here <http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/857875464>.
network=http://tec-wl.be is one as you can see by being able to click on
it here <http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1645537259>.

I recommend adding   *source=survey 2014-06  TEC 2014-04*
Much like Key:source <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:source>
indicates and I am presently proposing to amend slightly as shown below.

The bulk import scenario was clearly written with in mind the idea to
maintain a remaining-to do TEC file.

Suppose an *.osm file is built from an imported source.  The map
contributors are requested to move/update  the map elements to osm.org
after verifications such as coordinates.  If the *.osm map elements
contain a survey value such as source=survey <import-date>, then a
program can find out by checking for an equal or later survey date what
map elements have been moved/updated to osm.org and hence build a
remaining.osm file containing what remains to be done.  A FIXME can be
added at import time to already existing osm.org elements to warn about
the ongoing import.

Cheers,

André.
